THE DAWN OF SPRING,

Bright and fresh novelties
in foreign and domestic
woolens are commencing to
arrive. Our tailoring de-
partment seems to have
put on a new dress. The
quiet and somber shades of
winter goods are being re-
placed by bright and attrac-
tive spring patterns. Some
body has said, "There's
nothing new under the
SUM-" That somebody would
considerably modify his
statement were he to see
the many new things to be
found among our advance
styles of piece goods for
early spring wear, the mob
biest checks and plaids we
have ever seen, not loud or
large, but elegant and con-
servative. The handsomest
effects in combinations of
colors that one could well
imagine.
The wonder is that such
effects were never produced
before-for the same ma
terial and the same colors
have long been known to
most designers. r h Q

We are not very fierce partisans ourselves
but we like good, frank partisan like the
editor Of the NATIONAL REPUBLICAN. In his
able breakfast table letter to the President yes
teTday, after naming many things in which the
Democrats in Congress have failed at the pres
ent session, he closed as follows "Wth this
evidence Of want of capacity of the Demo
cratic party, do you expect the people will
vote the Democratic ticket in 1882 As be-
tween the fools and the rascals, the people will
say turn the fools out and put the rascals in."
This square.toed admission by the editor ofthe
great national organ OF the Republican party
that the Republican party is the party Of ras.

Years Behind the Curtain, referring to his
term of service as Catholic priest, .and in it
he assails the authorities of the church and
the priesthood in violent terms.
Father Donnelly is graduate of :he Mag

ago he was assigned to tbs parish of Petro-
leum Centre. While there he disobeyed the
orders then of the Bishop of Erie in regard
TO his conduct as priest. He was silenced
by the Bishop and ordered to the Trappist
monastery at Gethsemane, Ky. He obeyed
the order, and after doing penance for long
time in the monastery he was sent to take
charge OF the Dukes Centre and Startwell
parish and in the northern oilfield. He was
subsequently transferred to the Mercer and
Greenyille parishes. Father Donnelly kept
about his house as pets numerous SQUIRRELS.

Many of his pensioners were rich and

would not administer any of the church's
rites to Pensioners who were in arrears In
this he was supported by the rich people of
the church in the parish. A week or SO ago

Mullen was notified, and he ordered Father
Donnelly to peform his priestly functions.
He refused to obey. The Bishop sent Faith

following Sunday Bishop Mullen came to
Father Donnelly's parish to administer the
sacrament in the church. The parish com
mlttee, who were supporters of Father Dom
nelly, locked the church door and refused to
open it to the Bishop. The latter had the
door forced open. He disrobed Father Dom

the parish. Following that proceeding

JUVENILE POKER PLAYERS

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April Something
of sensation has been caused by the dis

patronized by boys between the ages of 12
and 20 years. Within the last few days two
boys engaged as collectors have disappeared,
having failed to account for money paid by
customers, and in stracing up the cause for
their fight the existence and location of the
place were revealed. 1t was hidden in a cell
lar under business block in the centre of
the city, and was unknown to the police.
The entrance to it was through a saloon.
back of the bar-room, at the end of which is
what appears to be a large ice chest, but
which is in reality an entrance to a stairway
leading down cellar. When the place was
raided there were 40 boys playing poker, 25
and 80 cents limit, nearly all Of them of
highly respectable families. They were
smoking and drinking.
The place was underground, lighted by
gas, and without a particle of ventilation,
and an electric alarm bell connected it with

A Maine Man Wins a Law Suit In
Michigan.

DETROIT. Mich, April 19.-Some months
ago the shipbuilders in this neighborhood
had trouble with their men and imported
ship carpenters from Maine to do their work.
The Knights of Labor paid these men $35
each and in return took their promise to re-
turn to Maine or out of this district, as the
men whose places they filled were Knights.
District Assembly No. 80 sued one of these
men to recover this money, claiming the de-
fendant violated his agreement to leave the
town. The defendant admitted the contract.
and that he did not return home, but claimed
the contract was illegal Judge Jennison

comers had been intimdated and unlawfully
